"Jeff is a great addition to the staff because of his experience and research on mobility screening and its impact on power production. Jeff's strengths certainly compliment our integrative health approach. In addition to his research based methods, it was apparent in the interview process that he is also a high energy coach who can communicate effectively with our athletes," said Drew Galbraith, Sr. Associate Director for Peak Performance.
